Description
Nero d’Avola Riserva with intense ruby red colour with violet reflections. Epicentro has a wide and elegant bouquet, enhanced by pleasantly integrated hints of mineral and wild fruit with delicate hints of cherry. In the mouth it has a sweet and soft taste, the tannins are perceptible and well-balanced- The aftertaste is fruity, armonic, long and persistent.
The story of Cantine Ermes digs its roots in a past of destruction. It is the story of the Phoe- nix, the mythical bird that rises from the ashes. Even though in this case instead of ashes we’d better talk about ruins, ruins of what was left from a terrible earthquake that in the night between the 14th and 15th of January 1968 destroyed Belìce Valley, a wide portion of western Sicily.
But it was from that same land, so cruel yet so generous, that a group of young vine growers decided to start again, undertaking a process of social and economic rebirth completed in 1998 when Cantine Ermes was founded, right in the wounded heart of Belìce Valley, betwe- en the towns of Gibellina and Santa Ninfa. Today Cantine Ermes is one of the most impor- tant producers in Sicily, with its 9.141 hectares of vineyards, spread across the province of Trapani, Agrigento and Palermo, and its 2.008 members, who every day with passion and sacrifice cultivate both local and international grape varieties.
